This is probably my favorite Scanlan song to work on to date; a cover of Third Eye Blind's Semi Charmed Life. I tried to make this song about Grog (as it was intended), but it ended up being about Pike's magnificent return during the Briarwood arc. Parental discretion advised. The mp3 is here and the lyrics are here.
Semi F---ed Fight
Kill kill kill, kill kill kill kill...
I'm packed and I'm holding
I'm smiling, she's living, she's golden
She kills with me, once said she loved me
As a friend, whoa distraction
She comes round and she flies like an eagle
And I make her smile, like a drug for me
Beaming like the sun god that acts through a tree
Keep on smiling, what we go through
Won't stop with the rhythm that inspires you
And I sing to you like the chorus to the verse
Improvise another line like a coda with a curse
Come on like a sleek gnome takes the stage
To take us on would be a big mistake
I want Grog to rage, to get me through this
Semi-fucked kinda fight, baby, baby
I want Grog to rage, I'm not worried, but someone might die
Kill kill kill, kill kill kill kill...
The sky was black, it was gray
We can't see it 'cuz we're hidden away
And I wish I could get back there, someplace back there
Hummin' through the zombies and vamps
Maybe these words'll keep you going til we camp
I won't stop, I won't come down
I keep stock with the tick-tock rhythm, I inspire you all
Until I slip up, take the hit that I was given
Then I'm hit again, then I'm hit again
I said...
How do I get back there to, the hit points that I've grown so used to
How do I get myself back to a state of full health
I want Grog to rage, to get me through this
Semi-fucked kinda fight, baby, baby
I want Grog to rage, I'm not worried, but someone might die
I believe in the gnome that glows
Pike gives me a feeling, a grown up feeling
I believe in the faith she shows
And the four right chords can still inspire
When I'm with you I feel like I could die
And that would be alright, alright
And when the image flickered, she said she was fading
Crushed me that she wouldn't be staying
Tryin quite hard not to die, but
Now I'm struggling to survive, those days you were wearing that full plate
One of these days we'll go on a date
Those other girls don't mean a thing
One day Sarenrae will smile on me
And you heal me, when I'm broken
Still it's all that I wanna do, just a little now
Feel myself, heading off the ground
I'm scared, I'm not coming down
No, no
And I won't run for my life
Though the undead armies stretch for miles
But it'll be alright, alright
And I want Grog to rage, to get me through this fight
Baby, I want Grog to rage
Not listening when you say...
Good-bye, good-bye, good-bye, good-bye
Kill kill kill..
The sky was black, it was gray
I couldn't see it cuz we're hidden away
And I wish I could get back there
Someplace back there, in the city of Emon
I want Grog to rage
